DOCUMENT:Q165998 25-FEB-2002 [iis] TITLE :Cold Fusion Applications Bypass Security PRODUCT :Internet Information Server PROD/VER::2.0,3.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kb3rdparty ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Internet Information Server versions 2.0, 3.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== Cold Fusion template files that should be only accessible to authenticated users are also getting returned to other users. CAUSE ===== The Cold Fusion ISAPI dll file is running in a manner that does not preserve the user context. Therefore, it allows the cfm file to run solely based on the permissions assigned the Cold Fusion dll (Iscf.dll) file. WORKAROUND ========== Allaire is working on a new version of the .dll file (maintenance fix 2.02) that will resolve the problem.
